Let G be the group of rational points of a semisimple algebraic group of rank 1 over a nonarchimedean local field. We improve upon Lubotzky's analysis of graphs of groups describing the action of lattices in G on its Bruhat-Tits tree…

We study the model theoretic strength of various lattices that occur naturally in topology, like closed (semi-linear or semi-algebraic or convex) sets. The method is based on weak monadic second order logic and sharpens previous results by…

We give a construction of MV-polytopes of a complex semisimple algebraic group G in terms of the geometry of the Bott-Samelson variety and the affine building. This is done by using the construction of dense subsets of MV-cycles by Gaussent…

We propose a setup in which Andreev-like reflections predicted for 1D transport systems could be observed time-dependently using cold atoms in a 1D optical lattice. Using time-dependent Density Matrix Renormalisation Group methods we…

We investigate the properties of Lindblad equations on $d$-dimensional lattices supporting a unique steady-state configuration. We consider the case of a time evolution weakly symmetric under the action of a finite group $G$, which is also…

The cobordism distance on the knot concordance group is used to define a measure of how close two knots are to being linearly dependent. Roughly stated, d(K,J) is defined by minimizing the cobordism distance between pairs of knots in cyclic…

In this article we prove that the co-compactness of the arithmetic lattices in a connected semisimple real Lie group is preserved if the lattices under consideration are representation equivalent. This is in the spirit of the question posed…

We investigate variations of Brieskorn lattices over non-compact parameter spaces, and discuss the corresponding limit objects on the boundary divisor. We study the associated variation of twistors and the corresponding limit mixed twistor…

We investigate closed subsets (subsemigroups, resp.) of compact-like topological spaces (semigroups, resp.). We prove that each Hausdorff topological space can be embedded as a closed subspace into an H-closed topological space. However,…

A mixed lattice vector space is a partially ordered vector space with two partial orderings and certain lattice-type properties. In this paper we first give some fundamental results in mixed lattice groups, and then we investigate the…

Schubert varieties of hyperplane arrangements, also known as matroid Schubert varieties, play an essential role in the proof of the Dowling-Wilson conjecture and in Kazhdan-Lusztig theory for matroids. We study these varieties as…

In the seminal paper of Borel and Tits about reductive groups, they show some fundamental results about Bruhat cells with respect to a minimal parabolic subgroup, e.g., relative Bruhat decomposition and its geometrization, relative Bruhat…

Let $V\subseteq A$ be a conformal inclusion of vertex operator algebras and let $\mathcal{C}$ be a category of grading-restricted generalized $V$-modules that admits the vertex algebraic braided tensor category structure of…

Nazarov-Treil-Volberg recently proved an elegant two-weight T1 theorem for "almost diagonal" operators that played a key role in the proof of the $A_2$ conjecture for dyadic shifts and related operators. In this paper, we obtain a…

Let $\Gamma$ be a graph product of finite groups, with finite underlying graph, and let $\Delta$ be the associated right-angled building. We prove that a uniform lattice $\Lambda$ in the cubical automorphism group Aut$(\Delta)$ is weakly…

The motion of a rigid body in a quadratic potential is an important example of an integrable Hamiltonian system on a dual to a semidirect product Lie algebra so(n) x Symm(n). We give a Lagrangian derivation of the corresponding equations of…

We prove that the asymptotic Assouad-Nagata dimension of a connected Lie group $G$ equipped with a left-invariant Riemannian metric coincides with its topological dimension of $G/C$ where $C$ is a maximal compact subgroup. To prove it we…

We prove that cocompact (and more generally: undistorted) lattices on $\tilde{A}_2$-buildings satisfy Lafforgue's strong property (T), thus exhibiting the first examples that are not related to algebraic groups over local fields. Our…
